Global Research News: Unprovoked Israeli Acts of Aggression against Syria!

Prelude to a broader war? The US feigns dissociation with an act of Israeli aggression, as was planned since 2007. The West has carefully cultivated Israel into a regional bully. Immune from inter national condemnation, it is now being used to commit egregious war crimes against neighboring Syria, in hopes of provoking a retaliation, and giving the US and its regional axis, the justification it has long sought to militarily intervene. Unprovoked, Israel has attacked Syria numerous times over the past 2 days, including attacks on the Syrian capital of Damascus, in what appears to be a series of intentional provocations, designed to drag the region into a wider conflict. Its series its US sponsors can then enter militarily. Neither attacked directly by Syria, nor able to cite credible evidence in regards to perceived threats, Israel claims to be reacting to, the assault on Syria represents a Chapter VII breach of the United Nations Charter. What's more, is that while the US feigns disassociation with Israel's breach of international peace, after jointly fueling a genocidal sectarian conflict within Syria's borders for the past two years, it is a documented fact that the US and Saudi Arabia planned to use Israel to conduct military attacks against Iran and Syria, they themselves could not justify politically, legally, or strategically. What is now hoped, is that Syria and Iran retaliate militarily , allowing the other shoe to drop, and for the US, UK, France, and their regional axis to directly intervene in Syria, and with luck, Iran. Insidious Ploy Engineered and Documented in 2007-2009. As early as 2007, it was reported that a US Saudi Israeli conspiracy to overthrow the governments of Iran and Syria, by arming sectarian terrorists, many linked directly to Al Qaeda, was already set in motion. Pulitzer Prize winning journalist Seymour Hersh, in his 2007 New Yorker article, The Redirection, stated, with emphasis added: To undermine Iran, which is predominantly Shiite, the Bush Administration has decided in effect, to reconfigure its priorities in the Middle East. In Lebanon, the Administration has cooperated with Saudi Arabia's government, which is Sunni, in clandestine operations that are intended to weaken Hezbollah, the Shiite organization that is backed by Iran. The US has also taken part in clandestine operations, aimed at Iran and its allay Syria. A by-product of these activities, has been the bolstering of Sunni extremist groups, that espouse a militant vision of Islam, and are hostile to America and sympathetic to Al Qaeda.
